Women worry what men think about them working… that’s not right though. Men arnt worried you will work we love that. What we are worried about is you’ll let the other things we value slip. For example not enough time due to work to clean, cook, look after kids, spend time with us. This are very important and well depending on the man odds are higher he makes much more money and works more then you so if you can’t keep up with cleaning that means he has to.
If after a 80+ hr work week I come home and get a day off you yell at me to do something you should have already handled with your 40 hr work week… we’re gonna have a problem. Now if my 80 hrs gots me beat and there something that’s my job like sinks busted, yard needs mowed, groceries need carried I got this but if my laundries not done… in my opinion, it’s a woman job to make a house a home and if your failing that it’s unacceptable. Never should what you want come between OUR COMBINED success. That goes for what I want as well. Commitment is a lot of work and if a person can’t see that and sacrifice for others their not ready.
No, men will not be turn off, but unless you REALLY break big in the art world, painting will not pay the bills. It is likely that in any marriage, your husband will still be primary breadwinner, and he will expect you to be the primary housekeeper. (quid pro quo)
Strong, sensible and open-minded men love career minded women. I am a successful technology executive. My boyfriend (who is a partner at big four) and I work to support each other and keep up with both of our career aspirations. He has a 12 yo and I have a 14 yo from prev marriage.
It is important to find the right partner - even if it’s the highest priority of your life now, don’t settle for someone who does not appreciate or support your passion and goals. Not worth it!
so instead of worrying if it would turn off men, think if the guy is worthy of you. Good luck!
Some will, some won't.
The right one for you won’t.

Its' not a plus or a minus really. Mature men know that they will never see any of a woman's money so it's not like it's an big advantage. If you have a high power corporate job that teaches you to be bossy and a pain in the ass, that would be a large negative. If you have something in life that keeps you fulfilled and also doesn't turn you into a crazy bitch and I don't have to pay for every single cent of your expenses, I guess I would see this as ideal. A smart mature man will see this situation as a plus if he takes a minute to analyze it.
Being career minded and passionate about what you do isn't an issue, it's when it takes over and they have no time for their partner. As long as there is balance then I can't see any issue.
Look at it from the other side (of which there's already plenty of stories) would you be happy with a guy who spent 80+ hours working, loved his job but had no time for your or your family (should you have one).
Not persoanlly. In fact, my girlfriend does the most of the money making in our relationship. has for around four years now, ever since she graduated college. I've still studying in college though... I do what I can though.
It could happen because if your career is everything how does a relationship fit in there?
I wouldn't mind being in a relationship with a career minded woman as long as I find space for me and the relationship in your life.
Yea it might turn off some men.

I don't think so. It isn't something immoral and it should allow you to not work the same days he is off so you will have plenty of time together. It seems good to me.
Hell i myself would be turn on by that I think seeing a woman work is sexy
I support someone's passion and dream. Now, if her career is taking over her life and demanding too much time then I won't be interested in such relationship.
Better to stay single then.
Any guy who would be turned off by that is an idiot
Now, I find things like that (with balance) very admirable
Nope because it means we won’t have to work harder if we have a family
Some guys can't handle equal, but a successful woman does not scare me.
Usually my answer is yes but for whatever reason I don't think I'd feel that way about painting. Maybe I just like the idea of painting, I don't know.
I would be turned off, yeah
Nope. That's actually a huge turn on for me.
Why would I possibly be turned off by that?
